Poetry
I keep my body under subjection
Lest I disturb my kingdom connection.
To resist temptation, I watch and pray.
I prohibit lust from having its way.
Can any good exist in my flesh?
With the Spirit of God, it fails to mesh.
An enemy of God, it makes me
So His will I am unable to see.
To circumvent being seduced—blinded,
I avoid being carnally minded.
I walk in the Spirit realm without cease,
For only there can one find life and peace.
Led by God’s Spirit, I am His daughter.
He directs me away from sin’s slaughter.
I humble myself, pray, and seek His face.
I find no condemnation in His grace.
